The Juggalos Get a Documentary

Guest contributor Jim Kiernan's August visit to the Gathering of the Juggalos gave us a new appreciation for the drug-fueled happy nihilism of fans of Insane Clown Posse.

That said, we're not sure of the demand for a documentary of the Juggalos. Filmmaker Sean Dunne put one together and the resulting film, American Juggalo, may go a long way toward reinforcing the Juggalo stereotype. We'd embed the video in the post, but there's liberal usage of the phrase "I do what the fuck I want" and "I don't give a fuck," naked pregnant women, drug use, people spray painting each others' faces, and talk about "bonding" between Juggalo and Juggalette.

You'll wonder where the 25-30 minutes it took to watch the film went.
